Guess my HP

[JV106]

Thanks. I'm pleased with the results. I can't help but wonder what 10#'s of boost would do for it.

[slowturbocar]

Not bad for initial results,i think there's more in it if you put some good headers/mid pipe on the car.

[JV106]

Do you have any recommendations on a 3" mid pipe? Preferably that could fit my accufab mid length headers.

[slowturbocar]

Unless they make one you'll probably have to build one. What type of collector is on them?

[JV106]

I welded v-band clamps on them. I'm thinking about buying jones mufflers. Anyone run them?

[4king]

I was going to say 5.3 with a cam.

I was going to say 4.8 with a turbo and head studs

It blew up on me on the way home from the dyno on Wednesday ��. Makes me sick. Dyno to home is a 15 minute drive. The engine builder was cool about it and so was the tuner. I pulled the motor over the weekend. Autopsy tomorrow. If it weren't for bad luck I don't think I'd have any.

Fuuuuck! I'm sorry, dude.

[JV106]

Thx man. I gotta find a way to change my luck.

[Rick Modena]

Man, that sucks!

[BLAKE]

Dang, that sucks man. Hate to hear it.

Well after months of waiting and diagnosing I got the motor put back together. Mahle ran a pretty thorough analysis on the pieces of piston and determined the builder did not seat a clip for one of the wrist pins all of the way. The builder obviously disagreed and blamed the tune. I think I got a bad tune and a not fully seated circlip.

Either way the builder sleeved the block with a darton sleeve, bought new pistons, gaskets, bearings and assembled it all from oil pan to lower intake, water pump to flywheel. Cost me $2200.

I should be back on the road in a couple of weeks. Any recommendations on a tuner? I was thinking maybe True Street in Mckinney.

True street does pretty good with these older mustangs. Sean tuned my old 95 with a 347 setup many years ago, and it ran fantastic! 1000x better then it did when hpp tuned it. It drove great but had a lot of idle surging and would die all the time with hpp tune. After Sean at tsm tuned it, it idled great, no surging, no bucking, no dying etc. tell them Toby sent you over and you need a discount!! Haha

[Gasser64]

Or a stock Coyote.

People probably won't like this comment, but this is why I just can't ever see building up a 302 or 351 for my 94. That old stuff is just outclassed.

Jetfast ftw

msg him and talk with him...you will find he is by far the best in tuning the eec-iv
